Mangalore, May 30: Schools reopened in the district on Wednesday amidst confusion with regard to the 25% reservation quota for children from marginalized sections in private schools.

Many schools had completed the admission formalities a lot earlier. Education Minister Vishweshwara Hegde Kageri had stated that the RTE would be implemented from this academic year itself. Accommodating the 25% quota has become a headache for many schools. Some schools have classified their quotas from within the students already admitted by them.

According to the quota statistics put out by the Department of Public Instructions, a total of 1,464 seats are available in the district wherein 311 seats are available in Bantwal zone, 78 in Belthangady, 306 in Mangalore city, 455 in Mangalore rural, 107 in Moodbidri, and 207 in Puttur zones. The seats are meant for children belonging to SC/ST, categories 1, 2A, 2B, 3A, 3B, children of migrants, street children, children with special needs, HIV affected children, and economically backward children.

As per government orders, along with 'bisioota', 'sihioota' arrangements have also been made in many schools to welcome children for the new academic year.

Meanwhile, text books for classes 5 and 8 have changed from this academic year.
